A. 
The Village of Ocean Beach Board of Trustees may from time to time, on its own motion or on petition or on the recommendation of the Planning Board, amend, change, supplement or repeal the regulations, restrictions, district boundaries and provisions of this chapter, including the amended Zoning Map, after public notice and hearing in accordance with minimum zoning standards as set forth in 36 CFR 28.
B. 
Such proposed amendment or change, whether initiated by the Board of Trustees or by petition, shall be referred to the Planning Board for report thereon. The Board of Trustees, by resolution adopted at a stated meeting, shall fix the time and place of a public hearing on the proposed amendment or change and cause notice to be given in accordance with the provisions of the Village Law.
The Board of Trustees shall promulgate such rules and regulations as are required to carry out the purposes of the amendment procedures for petitions of owners or contract vendees who are requesting a change of use district classification. This shall include provisions for notification of surrounding property owners, reasons for the proposed change, fees and such information on the property listing and proposed plans as the Board deems necessary and appropriate.
The Village Board of Trustees may, on its own motion, initiate an amendment to any provision of this chapter after referring the amendment to the Planning Board for a report thereon or, upon recommendation of the Planning Board, shall consider any change of use district classification or any amendment, change, supplement or repeal to the provisions of this chapter, including the amended Zoning Map. In either case, there shall be a resolution setting a date for a public hearing on the motion. In addition, any change to the use district classification of properties within the village shall require adequate notice to be given to instant and surrounding property owners, apprising them of the proposed change, in accordance with methods and procedures contained in the Village Law of the State of New York.
The Board of Trustees may, upon petition duly signed and acknowledged from landowners within the Village of Ocean Beach, elect to hold a public hearing on any requested amendment, supplement, change, modification or repeal of these regulations and cause notice thereof to be given in the manner prescribed above, and thereafter vote to adopt such request.
Whenever the Board of Trustees, as a condition for the granting of an application for a change of use district classification or special permit, requires restrictive covenants to be imposed upon the subject property, such restrictive covenants must be filed in recordable form in the offices of the Village Clerk and Suffolk County Clerk by the applicant, at his expense, not later than 60 days from the date of notification of passage of change in use district classification or special permit, except that the Board of Trustees may extend the time for filing the restrictive covenants upon good cause, upon written application. Failure to file said restrictive covenants with the Village Clerk within the stipulated period of time shall render the granting of the change ineffective and null and void.
The Board of Trustees may from time to time, on its own motion or on petition, amend, supplement, change, modify or repeal any covenant imposed on property at the time of a change of use district classification or special permit. Proper notice shall be given for public hearing and notice to property owners in accordance with procedures contained in applicable portions of the Village Law of the State of New York.
No parcel or part thereof may be subject of an application for amendment of use district classification, amendment of restrictive covenants or special permit, within one year after the Board of Trustees has held a public hearing on an application, unless the second application seeks a change to a more restrictive zoning category, restrictive covenant or restrictive use than was earlier sought.
